day zero - afternoon

dreamland day zero 42 players remaining. [Once the announcements are over, there's no further response from the voice over the intercom. The afternoon wears on, demanding nothing more of you. The park will remain open until late in the evening, when the fireworks go off, but you can always go back earlier. In fact, it might be wise to gather your fellow players and discuss what you've learned in the mess hall.] rulebook character statuses private conversations This is a mingle following the plot revelations yesterday! Characters can gather in the mess hall and discuss what they've learned and make plans. Night will go up at the same time, and this post will be backdated.

[Yes he noticed the sticker on her forehead, and he chose not to bring it up because he knows better.]

Mabel! [How many times has he yelled at her today?]

[ineptus]

[Laughing, she closes her sticker book.]

Look, at least I'm trying, right?

[terci]

...

[He sighs]

Sorry. [He's just grumpy and not having your cute sticker fun because he's worried, that's all.]

[ineptus]

[Giving his arm a gentle punch, she smiles.]

It's okay Dipper. I know you're just all bothered about all this. But if you stay all twisted up like this nothing's going to get done, y'know?

[terci]

Yeah, yeah... [He rubs his arm where she punched it.]

I'm not trying to let it get to me, but I just can't help thinking about it.

[ineptus]

Well...stop getting down about it! Think about all the fun we can have while we're here! We'll do all our investigating, but we'll enjoy the rides and food and stuff too, okay?

[Smiling, she bumps his shoulder with hers.]

I think someoone needs a ride on the teeaacuuuuuups!

[terci]

I dunno Mabel, I investigated those rides pretty thoroughly, and they didn't really seem safe to ride...

[ineptus]

I rode them all!

[terci]

[He smacks his forehead.]

Mabel, you can't just go around and ride suspicious looking rides, especially at an amusement park that has trees growing into the roller coasters!

[ineptus]

They looked pretty safe to me. Plus, people had already ridden them before! I got to ride them with all of these really nice people! I really think you should give them a try. Don't judge a roller coaster by the trees that grow on them Dipper.

[terci]

Even rides at normal amusement parks aren't safe! You could've been killed!

[ineptus]

Buuut I wasn't! [Grin!]

Dipper calm down. Technically everything could be dangerous, but that doesn't stop us from leaving the Mystery Shack every day! I mean come on, even a relationship with a short little kid almost killed us. I'm not going to be worried about amusement parks after that.

[terci]

But still! The only reason we haven't died yet is because we've been able to figure out how to get past those things! Old broken down amusement park rides could malfunction at any moment, it's entirely up to chance!

[ineptus]

Okay. Dipper? I don't think any of them are going to malfunction. These people aren't going to have much of a "game" if we all die on their amusement park rides, right? So we're good!

[terci]

[He heaves a very big sigh.]

Alright, alright. I guess you have a point there.

Just.. promise me you won't go around and ride or mess with things that even look a little dangerous, okay?

[ineptus]

[She sighs, but nods and smiles.]

Alright. I promise. I won't go riding anything that seems even a little dangerous. But only if you promise to ride the teacups with me later!

[terci]

[He smiles back, and nods.]

Alright, that sounds pretty fair.

[ineptus]

Good. We're going to go really super fast! I hope you're ready to lose your lunch hehehe.

[terci]

I can't lose something I haven't eaten yet, haha!
